Abstract

A chemical type CO₂ gas generator for a carbonated drink dispenser, which while embodied in several different implementations, commonly is comprised of a first (16) and a second (18) liquid reagent container with the second (18) reagent container including a reaction chamber for generating a carbonating gas when the two reagents are mixed. Means (22, 28; 20, 30) are coupled between the containers for causing the first reagent to transfer from the first container to the reaction chamber of the second container when the pressure of the generated gas falls below a predetermined value.
